I'm trying to put the potentials for Thomas Fawcett grains into Promash. The Maltcraft page ( here ) lists max potential yields as Degree/kg Miag 2. :blink:

Is there an easy way tp convert these to percentages ?
 
i'll reply to this in a couple days.
good question.
 
Goat, I'm trying to do the same thing. Bought my first few kilos of TF the other day.

Is this how you work it out guys.

eg. Marris Otter Pale Malt=305
Sugar=386

Then 305/386=0.7901
=79%

Just guessing but is this right?

Thanks JD
 
Spot on, Justin. Most malt spec sheets actually give the percentage extract rather than the exrtact value though.

Jovial Monk, I had a look on the TF site and they also give the specifications in metric. Unless they are hiding imperial measurments somewhere else where I can't find them..
 
Thanks Justin - its all very logical when you put it like that.....:)

JM, as Murray points out, the Fawcett UK site that I looked at had the same figures as the Maltcraft. I did look at the site prior to posting the query....
